PROTONIX  (PANTOPRAZOLE SODIUM):  Pantoprazole is used to treat certain stomach and esophagus problems (such as acid reflux). It works by decreasing the amount of acid your stomach makes. This medication relieves symptoms such as heartburn, difficulty swallowing, and persistent cough. It helps heal acid damage to the stomach and esophagus, helps prevent ulcers, and may help prevent cancer of the esophagus. Pantoprazole belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).   FDA Approval Date: 2000-02-02 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  Acid reflux I’m so glad I found this website I thought I was going crazy only one to experience these intense heart palpitations! First day I took it I ended up in the hospital the next day with a severe panic attack I thought I was having a heart attack. The ER told me it was just Costochondritis. However I kept taking this and everyday my anxiety would get worse and worse I ended up having panic attacks daily and extreme heart palps. It felt like my heart kept beating out of my throat and racing. My kidney hurt and my arms became tingling and numb. I’m quitting this medicine immediately. Does anyone know how long it takes to feel normal again? Or how I can cure my Gerd with no meds only natural? F 33 7 days

 1  Gastritis Muscle ache, leg cramps and soreness, loss of appetite, severe stomach pains even more so than my original pains, severe anxiety, skin burning on scalp, chest and upper back, neck pain, headache constant chest pains through the day along with stomach gurgling, heart palpitations. Doctor prescribed for what they think could be gastritis and an Ulcer after an ER visit. Within 24 hours weird symptoms started. Burning feeling on my skin and scalp, heart palpitations started and constant chest pain. Made 2 more trips to the ER as my anxiety convinced me I was having a heart attack due to the chest pains. I was pumped with an IV both times with 80 MG to make matters worse. Glad I found this site and I know I'm not crazy. I will no longer take this crap F 37 7 days

 3  Dysphasia Decreased ability to maintain erection and/or have orgasm; bearable so far but hope it doesn't get worse; that would be unacceptable. Too early to tell yet if it has helped with dysphagia, but it very well may have; it has been several weeks now since the last time I had a serious issue trying to swallow food. M 54 8 weeks

 1  GERD, Chest Pains ANXIETY and PANIC ATTACKS!!! Pressure in the middle of my chest, numbness in my arm and hands. My life has been a living hell for 5 months. This pill has had me in the ER 3 times, had countless test with a cardiologist. I’m now seeing a therapist and starting an anxiety medication. I’m not even the same person - I live in constant fear that I’m having a heart attack. My poor family and friends... please do not take this pill - I’ve had heartburn for 30 years I’ve tried Nexium in the past and never had these side effects... I’m going to look for a natural remedy as well! F 46 100 days

 4  Nausea from foods No side effects at all, took middle of the day I took this for 2 months for nausea after eating certain foods. It helped some, but some foods still gave me nausea, the doc had said that I would be able to eat everything. He wanted me to take it forever, but the manufacturer said they have not done any studies of long term side effects after 60 days. F 60 days

 1  esophagtis, Barrett's, GERDS Gas, bloating, severe nausea, diarrhea, bad stomach pain, extreme exhaustion, non-digested food in stool, headaches, body aches Told I must stay on it for life, but there is no way I can do that. It diminishes my quality of life in a huge way. I am exhausted and sick all of the time now. It does help GERDS symptoms, but it's not worth it.

 1  Gallbladder attack Severe, severe joint pains in back, hips, knees, and neck. Doctor thought I should begin using a cane. Worsened my A-Fib that had been infrequent. I took myself off this drug after realizing all my symptoms began after a few days on this medication. My joint pain is almost completely resolved after being off of it for one week. Gallbladder attacks however have returned. Seeing my GE in two weeks but there is no way in hell I will let him put me back on this medication. I could barely get out of a chair and every step was excruciating!!!! I too had the feeling I was dying. Hope they just remove my gallbladder!!! This medication should be removed by the FDA!!! By All Means Do NOT take Protonix!!!! F 68 3 weeks
